Mistaken Identity

Hym "It's mistaken identity leading to unearned success and the cover up of a phenomenon that you were completely ignorant about resulting in at least 2 school shooting and what happened was exactly what I said would happen. You want me being right to NOT CONSTITUTE A WIN and now you are making up a second game that I will not play and the asserting that I'm losing because actually even though I'm right I'm wrong and you SHOULD get to have and keep shit that should be going to me. In addition to intellectual property theft relating to the first working model of AI. You LOST when the kids kids and there is no second game. You lost forever. If you wouldn't have gotten in the fucking way none of this would be happening and there's of you idiots would have played ball rather than caring about my self-purported beliefs or my every vague musing none of that would have happened."

Theory of Offsetting Mistakes

This theory recognizes that humans are not perfect and that for every mistake in a model or schedule
there will be another "mistake" in somewhat equal scope to offset each other, hence rendering the model or budget still valid.
The idea behind is that things will anyway fall the way they fall and we cannot control for that.
The optimistic view is that this theory rejects Murphy's Law, the negligent take on it is the "Trust me, it will be OK" approach to life.
Decide where you want to be.
Accountant 1: oh, crap... we forgot to add $1 million in income from product X sales to the budget
Accountant 2: oh, fudge... product Y's revenue is inflated by $980K...oh wait... based on the Theory of Offsetting Mistakes all is well, the numbers we gave the CEO are still valid, yay.

Girl: oh, crap... your condom broke
Dude: oh, fudge... you miscounted your days, your period is due today at 8pm.... you are not pregnant, yay.
